Engine/trans compatibility question for swap candidate

[kendogg]

Hey kids! So, lets praface this by saying I'm considering a Benz engine swap into an old Chevy C10 truck.

That said: I'm looking at either OM606 or M113, more than likely. Both options, stock, would be powered a 722.6. Thats not going to work in an old truck. I need a 100% non-electronic transmission. The engine/ECU isn't an issue. But to keep a 722.6, I'd need to retain the Benz ignition switch/key system, as well as figure out how to feed it 4 wheel speed inputs - which isn't happening in an old truck.

SO - what automatics will bolt up without an adapter plate to an M113 or an OM606 and work for my application?

722.6 = NAG1
Check out Chrysler applications and aftermarket controls for same.

I've looked at those options, thanks. That doesn't really answer my question though.

1) The M113 was mated with a 722.6 or later trans.
2) Using an aftermarket controller (such as PCS) for the 722.6 can eliminate all the MB OEM input information. Engine information would come from an aftermarket ECU (MegaSquirt). One vehicle speed input is required.
3) An OM606 w/603 pump and 722.3 trans eliminates electrical control.
